I know a woman, and her mom, who wouldn't let people hold her baby without washing hands and then hand sanitizer. Wouldn't let her daughter play on the ground. Never let her walk much and kid was always in stroller or cart at store. I was totally opposite. Her kid was always sick and my kids rarely got sick. I'm protective but not overprotective like that. I think this overprotective scared of the world is bad for kids. Just sanitizer one time before entering isn't too bad though.

My mom was pretty weird, no, VERY weird about sweets in our house. "Dessert" was either plain yogurt with a tiny bit of honey, peanut butter and apples, or popcorn without any salt or butter. A kid who came over after school once got their fruit by the foot taken away from them by my mother, who threw it away. I got away with a few sweet things every once in a while if I traded something at lunch and snuck it home. If i got caught, I'd get either pine tar soap in my mouth or a spoonful of Sriracha I'd have to swallow. Not as crazy as some of these other ones, but still a little weird. Edit: I vividly remember sneaking bakers chocolate (chocolate that has no sugar in it) from the cupboard ad a child. Explains my love of dark chocolate now, lol.

Raising my family, my attitude for shoes on or off was simple: If you don’t want me to walk on your carpet, don’t put it on the floor. I had another rule for my Kids’s friends. Mostly in high school. When you come to see my boys, don’t make me open the door for you. If it’s not locked, just come in. Say “Hi” to me as you walk past. If it’s locked, it’s probably for a reason, so knock.

In my house growing up, there were locks on the outside of all the kids doors and the guest bathroom (the doorknobs were flipped) but all the doorknobs were broken and didn’t lock. Except for mine. But we weren’t allowed to shut our doors, unless we had friends over and they needed to change or something. My oldest sister usually had her door closed and slammed it a lot. Until one day her door wouldn’t open. So the doorknob was cut out of the door, it wasn’t replaced until 3 years after she moved out. I had helped my parents fix things a lot and for some reason, I had a knack for doorknobs, so when I was like 12, I flipped mine out of fear (me and my parents relationship was getting a little rocky) and I remember mother never noticed. I’m still living here (in my teens) and I’m realizing how literally (emotionally) abusive my mother was, because I thought all of this was normal.

soooo, there is a lot to unfold about the knocking thing. if you suffer from PTSD like i do (not from war. from living in the ghetto) when youve lived a point in your life where multiple times a week somebody is sneaking around your property trying to steal from you and hurt you. knocking is helpful. i got over it but my friends would all stomp up the stairs and hollar. the knocking lets you know the people in your house belong there. and especially in the country. its not good mentality to hear your door open and just accept it. thats how you get robbed and raped.

Went to a friend’s house for the very first time to do homework and her dad was an absolute menace. He seemed nice enough in public, but the guy was a tyrant. No closed doors. “No one closes a door in my house!” The doors were ALL off the hinges, including bathrooms, so this guy could theoretically stroll right past and see my friend if she was peeing or showering, and that made me feel scared for her. I left the house after an hour and walked around the corner to use the bathroom in a convenience store bathroom because I didn’t want him to walk past and see me. This was before cell phones, so I asked the convenience clerk to call my parents. I’ll never forget the look of horror on the clerk’s face as he overheard me telling my dad where I was and why. I felt stupid, felt like I was in trouble and my friend would be in trouble, and started crying. The clerk took the phone from me and assured my dad that he would protect me until dad could get there. “She’s safe, she’s staying right here, sir. I give you my word.” He brought me behind the counter and gave me a big ass bag of chips on the house until dad pulled up and thanked him. Dad took me home and I never went back to that house. My parents went to that convenience store the next day with a home-cooked meal to thank that clerk for his compassion, and my dad ended up helping him get a better job at a lumber company owned by my dad’s friend. I still see that clerk occasionally and he’s a good person. Can’t thank him enough for those salt and vinegar chips.

I was so scared at the time because I was taught to respect adults, but my parents made a point of telling me that I did the right thing and I wasn’t going to be punished. The worst thing was losing my friend, because she was angry I left the house and didn’t come back. I didn’t want to tell people what happened, but once she started talking shit about me in school, I spoke up to defend myself, told the whole story, said her dad was a monstrous creep, and said that if I was lying, she could invite everyone in class over to her house after school to verify whether her doors were off. She didn’t take the offer, even after another of her friends volunteered to walk inside with her. Kids put the pieces together and believed me. Word got around thanks to the kids and my parents not to go to her house. Kids started asking her if she showered with her dad or was having sex with him. She never spoke to me again. I didn’t want her to be embarrassed, but she was telling lies about me, so I set her straight. I feel sad, because I don’t think she ever saw anything weird about her life until I left, and the reaction of everyone else must’ve been hard for her to comprehend. She was new in our city and I think I must’ve been the first person she’d invited over. I kinda feel like I betrayed her somehow, even though it was a bad situation.

Me and my friends went to a mate's house because we were hanging out in the area. He had invited the others over once already but it was the first time for me. We had been out eating some greasy food and we all had to wash our hands. I promptly told the guy that I was gonna use the sink. Water starts flowing a normal steady stream when the dude flips his shit "don't you know how expensive water is?!". Turns the water stream down to a little stream, the kind that takes over a second to fill your hands if you cup them. I told him I'd need a bit more water since my hands were greasy, joking it'd take an hour to clean. Guy insisted, would turn the water off while I used the soap, and turned the water back on himself. He did this for 7 dudes, took us a while to get clean. Guy was living with his parents in a 4 floor mansion. His mom's car was a hummer. If you ever wondered why you aren't wealthy, spare on water.

My sister and I were with our dad's family for winter break in 2003 (I was 8 and she'd just turned 3), and grandma dearest made us sleep in the basement. It was unfinished, spider-filled, with only a thin piece of loose carpet between the foundation and the leaky air mattress we were forced to sleep on, with only a sheet and one fairly thin blanket. They live in upstate New York and there was at least one blizzard while we were there. They had two couches in the living room we could have slept on, also a spare room in the attic where they could have put the air mattress, or even just sleeping bags, but nope. We both went home sick because of that bitch, and that wasn't even the first time.

AITA? My house rule (kinda the only one) for my 20yo son is "no cooking after midnight", since he raises such a racket in the kitchen. It used to be also "no showering after 2am", but that is quieter, so I gave this one up. The two permanent yellow stickers in my house are the following: one is inside the fridge and says "Every cheese has a right to its own packaging. The Cheese Rights Declaration, 2029" in defiance of my wifes' attempts to stuff the remaining morsels of different cheeses in one bag. The other one is in the shower, saying "Please keep the shower light OFF when not using the room. Grey Predators are attracted by light". Those would be mosquitoes.

I have lived in the same house since I was 1 until this present day, and so has this girl that STILL lives 6 houses down from me. We used to be best friends, stuff happens yk... anyways, im pretty sure it was when I was walking down her house (we were between 5-8, something like that) and I remember getting to her door and she came outside, hugged me, and I asked "Do you want to come down to my house? We have a swingset!" She answered me saying she wasnt allowed to go down to my house until she was older, which at the time made sense since we were, yk, young. Fast forward like 4-5 years: we're taking a walk, and I say "You should come down, my mom said were going to have a special dinner and wanted to see if you could come." "I wish I could- my dad wont let me." "What?? Why? We're alot older now." "He just wont let me, its weird" It made no sense, because she was allowed to go down into a coldisac way behind her house with no one but herself, but oOooOo nOoo you cant go to Sam's house. Why? You just cant. -_- Well 2 years later and I have my very first sleepover at her house. Her dad is off at work, so it's just her mom. Mom is giving me weird ass looks, like I'm on drugs or something. I think I was like 13, this woman knew who i was my whole life. Weird. Didn't offer me any food, ex-best friend ended up giving me food from her plate. She was finally allowed to come to my house, and walked over whenever she pleased. We were in my room and DESPERATELY wanted a sleepover at my house. Called her mom, said she needed time to think about it. Never answered back, so she went home late. Got in trouble lol??? And shed do the exact same thing to us every time we asked. Oh, and throughout the years she got a phone. She let me go through it, and I got to her DMS with her dad. It consisted mostly of her asking him stuff, and a recent text read "hey dad I'm going down to Sam's house." "Be safe, and remember to be a leader dont follow whatever that friend of yours does" like.. what-? We're 14 and 15 now, and I still wonder why they didn't like us lol.

Eventually, I was sitting outside my room in the dead of winter writing my freshman paper on William Faulkner because of the god damn dorm room in the dead of winter because I didn’t want to interfere with his stupid routines. This was the first time in my life I turned to literature to insult someone I didn’t like

So strange rules... both involving my grandma's house... when we were kids, we weren't allowed to eat inside the house. Not just no eating in the living room or anything common like that but no eating in the house AT ALL. Only the adults could eat in the house and they could eat pretty much anywhere they wanted but the kids had to eat outside. This rule didn't apply when it was raining outside she wasn't that cruel, but as long as the sky was clear there would be a small kid's table set up outside and that's where my brother and I would eat. The other was when I got older and was staying with my Grandparents for a week in the summer, I was sleeping on the couch which was pretty common for me to do when sleeping in someone's house. Except her couch is already usually covered in pillows anyway so I just grabbed a pillow that was already there and started to lay down then she was like "What are you doing that's not a pillow!" I was dumbfounded... Um... it looks like a pillow, it feels like a pillow how is this not a pillow? She then proceeded to take all the pillows off the couch and hand me a blanket with a plain while pillow saying "Those are decorative only, we don't sleep on those. Make sure to put them back the way they were when you wake up I'm only doing that for you once." Weird but whatever... I started to just bring my own pillow after that so there's no confusion about which pillows are sleep pillows and which are just decorative. Oh... and I once knew a woman who had very specific rules about knocking when I came over... Not just that I should knock before entering which I can understand but that wanted me to knock three times, and ring the door bell twice in a very specific order because she thought it was "creepy" if little 4 year old me just knocked or rang the bell randomly. Oddly enough I actually knew TWO families who had lived in that same house. The first one, the kid's grandparents also happen to live in the house behind mine but his house was down the street from us. He was moving out but told me he would be back occasionally to visit his grandparents. There was an area in the yard that made a really good hiding spot the first kid had showed me and there were two older kids in high school who also lived on our road that would bully me and my brother. (Yes I was being bullied by kids more than 10 years older than me) anyway... I was hiding from those older kids on the property, the house was vacant at the time, when this other lady, the very specific knock/ring lady drives up to look at the house. At this point I come out of my hiding spot and ask her what she's doing there. She then asks me the same question and I tell her my friend use to live there but he moved away and now the house was empty. She then explained she might be moving into the house and mentioned that she had a son close to my age. Well they ended up moving in and her son ended up, throwing a rock at my head hitting me right between the eyes, it had a sharp edge so I started bleeding. I was sexually molested by this kid. And he was actually slightly older than me so when I started school there was already a rumor going around school about me so on my first day everyone already knew who I was... in the worst way possible... Now being that I was now 5 by this point it was actually pretty common for kids that young to do but even after I grew out of that phase I still got bullied for it... so my friend moved out and then a kid who pretty much made my life miserable moved into the same house. I stopped going over to that house after I realized the only person who could of spread that stuff about me around school had to be him. The only other kids in our school all started Kindergarten the same time I did, he was the only one in an upper grade level who could of said anything to anyone... and I didn't realize it at the time but looking back years later I think he did it to draw attention away from himself... in case I ever told anyone about his gross habits. But I was too young to even realize that there was anything sexual going on. So yeah... I hate that kid... and I really hope he never had children. I honestly have idea I haven't seen him in over 20 years. But I wish I never met that psycho kid or his psycho mother. Though it's possible the reason they were like that is because he was sexually abused by his father... I mean I never met a father, there didn't seem to be one in the picture... but that actually would explain the very specific knocking pattern so she'd know it was me and not her ex-husband and where he got the idea to even do that sexual stuff in the first place. But like seriously lady... if you knew that stuff was going on why let your kids play outside unsupervised with some random kid you barely know?

My friend had to ask her parents before she played with any of her own toys in her own room, especially her doll house. It never made sense to me because I was allowed to do whatever I wanted with my own stuff. Also that same friend would be bathed by both of her parents when she was seven. Then they would pick her up, place her on the table next to the sink and both rub lotion all over her. I dont think it was sexual but it was concerning, because she was old enough to do that herself. I don't know till what age this carried on for because her and I lost contact

Many seven year olds still need help with bath time, especially if they are neurodivergent. My autistic and adhd neice is seven, and her parents and I still help her with her bath time ritual because she will forget the steps on her own, and is really anxious about trying new things. We're slowly teaching her how to do it herself at her own pace. She just isn't quite there yet, which is okay. Other parents just don't think much of it. Public bathing and family bathing are very common in many cultures. Nothing sexual about it. Nudity just isn’t seen as inherently sexual in many culture, especially when it comes to bathing. Given, I truly hope it was one of these reasons.

@@tiegz9770 People would have said the same about me at that age, but I've been diagnosed as adhd and autistic as an adult. They used to only study the presentations of neurodivergence in boys, so they way it often presents in girls wasn't studied until recently. Neurodivergent girls still tend to be social, well behaved, etc. With little girls, it's things in their home lives, like chores and hygeine, that they often struggle with. Social differences in neurodivergent girls often don't start proving to be difficult until adolescence. Not that they can't cause difficulties for the child before then, only that they aren't always as noticeable to the child or caregivers. Either way, not saying she was one way or the other. Just thought I would clarify. And thanks for the kind words!

Oh and bedtime was at ten and even tho I paid my on phone bill he still took it when he saw fit...things only got worse after I turned 18 and got my first bf-my mother had (and to this day still) this belief that he had a crush on me, which made me sick every time I think abt it.

My paternal grandmother did that whole not letting me leave the table until I completely ate everything on my plate. The thing is her cooking wasn't that great and it didn't matter to her if I just found the food nasty. I'm not 100% certain about it, but I'm fairly sure that her doing that caused me to become a picky eater, because I used to eat everything before she started doing that. Now I get mild anxiety/discomfort eating other people's foods and trying new things, and I'm hyperaware of food textures and tastes.

I mean, you can get sick from being cold; directly from the cold you can get hypothermia, which will present somewhat akin to a sickness, though not necessarily a respiratory infection. Being cold can also weaken your immune response to things, increasing your chances of getting sick. As for wet hair; if it's "going outside with wet hair", it increases chances of hypothermia. If it's in other contexts, esp. sleeping with wet hair: this can increase chances of contracting a fungal infection of the scalp. Walking around barefoot, depending on how intact your soles are, you could, indeed, contract an infection from doing such.

And no, nothing to do with us being mean but all to do with: our son *HATING* the texture and flavor of meat, not liking beans, and liking rice if it's the Spanish kind (but only if it's all plain. So he rather eat the noodles with ketchup over eating the *ACTUAL* food I cook. That saddens me, because everyone else in my life has/had enjoyed my food 😭.

My ex-husband's family had some weird rules. I found out when his mother let me know. . ..No matter if it was a one, two, or a three. She had flattened the rolls of tp. You could only take the amount between each point. So the more a roll was used. The less one would get to use for on the toilet. ..To save water. She had a couple of rules. No flushing the toilet until several folks had used it. And the whole house had to all use the same bath water. She got mad at his brothers #2 & #3 when they put in a shower in the basement bathroom. ..Because it meant that the water could not be reused by several others. ..When it came to wrapping paper. Only kids under five were allowed to rip it off the present. From 5 on, they would use scissors to open up a present. This way the paper, especially the birthday stuff and Xmas stuff could be used for many a present over and over. I found out that rule when I ripped open a present. I was informed of that only young children acted like that. .. PB when placed on bread was to be done paper thin if even that thick. ..She would also harp on that supposedly one only needs about a quarter of a pound of meat per day.

However depending on where they lived the toilet paper rationing does make logical sense, if they lived in the city with a normal sewer system then its strange however if they lived in the country with a septic tank then it makes sense. Toilet paper doesn't always dissolve all the way so it ends up clogging everything and calling someone to fix it is a pain in the butt, which is why some brands are 'septic friendly'.

I used to get apartments rent ready in a lot of low income neighborhoods or class C properties as we call them where I am from. You would be surprised at how many apartments I went in to where kids had lived and see those regular bed/bath door knobs where you can lock them from the inside but they have a dummy knob on the outside so you have to have a screwdriver, butter knife or something like that to unlock them, but often they would be flipped around on the kids rooms and the closets as if kids had been locked in. There was also a lot of evidence of kids and pets being locked in using the bathroom in the floors or trying to escape by scratching/clawing or using a tool to whittle at the door frame etc just terrifying and more than one apartment I saw like this. I even found in one apartment stuffed in a gap in between a baseboard and the floor where a child wrote mommy is mean and I want to die. Just awful, terrible stuff that you don't realize is happening but then there is no forwarding address. As stated in the video it also happens in nicer neighborhood lots of middle to upper middle class people who are alcoholics or hate their lives and take it out on their children and spouse I just never worked in any nicer neighborhoods as I was trying to make a difference in the not so nice neighborhoods by making sure the landlord who i worked for was not a slum lord but anyway and trying to give people with less money for rent, apartments that were clean, safe and functioned as they were meant to. That being said in reference to the 1st commentersstatement it could well be that the people who owned the house your friend bought had an autistic or otherwise mentally impaired (sociopath/psychopath/anti social personality etc) child who they felt was a danger to the other children, or themselves, when not on 24/7 supervision which no one can do as parents have to sleep. By padlocking the doors they were keeping the dangerous child away from the other children and by keeping the dangerous child confined also keeping that child safe, or dad (or mom I guess) could have been a sexual predator trying to have sleep sex with the kids basically sleep walking and trying to have sex not something they wanted to do but had that medical condition and could not help it as they are not in control of themselves when sleep walking and locked themselves out of the kids room at night, could also have had a family member with a history staying in their home, could be all sorts of things you just never know.

I once went to my friends house for a play date when I was about 8. She'd said originally that we were going to the park. When we got there, the mom said we were going shopping, which was weird, but I thought maybe she was giving me and my friend money so we could buy things together like a shopping trip. But it wasn't like that. It was just a normal essential shopping trip (like groceries and cards and clothes for her own children) like I was being dragged along to it. She would choose all the clothes and decide on what they would wear even if they didn't want to wear it and wanted to wear something else.Then it got weirder. My friend asked for things to buy and then the mom would say she couldn't have it and then ask ME if I wanted it instead and she said that she would buy it for me. Then the 'play date' went on longer than expected because the mom had a lot of shopping to do and also the bus was delayed but the mom didn't think of calling my dad at all to explain even though she had his number. When we were finally back at my friends house after being dragged around town all day, my dad was really worried because we were super late and my dad had no idea where we were.

I went over to a friends house when I was like 10 for her birthday sleepover. wasn't allowed to wake up early. the next morning she wanted to play a princess make believe game and I dont like make believe much so I asked not to, got screamed at by her mother. left right after that as my mom was almost there and I waited outside. the friend's mother sent my mother angry texts yelling at her and cursing. didnt see her after that. TLDR: got yelled at for asking to not play a game

When I was a young adult one of my female friends was living with an older lady because of financial difficulties (I think she was her god mother) her god mother would have random men come in and have naughties with her but my friend was 1 supposed to ignore it and 2 was not allowed to do things for herself including having romatics but she was allowed to have friends spend the night. Even guys. No sex though. That was a “sin” the old lady was eventually arrested for prostitution.. turns out she was actually protecting my friend. Still weird though.

These are all insane. I can't believe people like this exist. When kids come to play with my son, here are the only rules (and I believe are somewhat reasonable): 1. Must always remain downstairs. 2. Unless clogged, the 1/2 downstairs is the only one to use. Hands must be washed. 3. Only things kids are allowed to touch are toys (since they're two toy chest downstairs), video-games, and books from the designated bookshelves. 4. Partially unsupervised outside time it's only allowed in the backyard. Partially means that I will only be checking through the windows and/or doors. Hands must always be washed upon entry. 5. Water is unlimited: must use from the pack of disposable cups next to the fridge that dispenses the (filtered) water. 6. When in doubt, wash hands. I think those are pretty sensible rules. Nothing insane.

The everyone shares a bath story... F no I still would have refused, I don't care. I was in someone's house who had a rule that everyone had to shower before bed... I never did... partly because I'm generally uncomfortable to showering in someone else' house in the first place, and it didn't help that the bathroom door didn't have a lock on it... There's also the fact that no one told me about this before I went over there and I just figured I would shower and change when I got home the next day so I didn't even bother bringing a change of cloths when I was only going to be there for one night. I might have sucked it up and took a shower if I was going to be there longer than over night... and there was a lock on the bathroom door... but I was really paranoid about someone walking in on me and no way in hell am I going to use someone bathroom any longer than I absolutely have to with no privacy lock on the damn door. If there was a rule about everyone sharing bath water I don't care how long I'm staying there I'm not getting in that. I'd be cleaner NOT taking a bath than soaking in the filth of 5 other people who were in the same bath before me. I think you could get an STD that way.

The "everyone shares one bath" thing is a holdover from people living rural where there isn't running water so that drawing a bath requires someone fill the basin from water pulled from the well and heated prior. The people who had it as house rules probably kept going at it after it was no longer necessary because it was just comfortable to them-- although manners of lots of people would generally dictate that guests go first for the sake of hospitality.

@@PercabethYessss Online is not very dangerous. They can do little to you online. But in reality, talking to Strangers is very dangerous. Thus has confused me a lot throughout my life. The idiot doctors tell me I need to be more social. However, I was brought up never to talk to strangers. That poses a paradox. How am I supposed to meet others if it is programmed into my head that I should not talk to strangers. When I ask the doctors if I should talk to strangers, even they say no. Then they wonder why I have no friends. I guess I am erring in the side of safety first. Nobody really needs to be social anyway. We are not wildebeest, zebra, impala, that require herds to live.

@@dianedenham5259 For children, I fully agree. There is way too much danger to allow a child to talk to anybody online or even just correspond using written text. But for adults, I do not think there is much anybody online can do to each other. For instance, I could have a gun and threaten to kill you right now. What is that really going to do to you save make you laugh? You could threaten to ruin my life by saying you will tell all my friends that I cheated on my wife. I would laugh at that as well, especially since I have neither a wife nor friends. We really can do nothing to each other. We are just text to each other.

If I was just tired of being at the table and not eat they would tell me that I am not going out of the table if I didn't finish the food. Actually I think it is a good way of teaching your kid to eat all that's given even if you don't like it. The would also tell me that in other parts if the world people had nothing to eat.

No that's not a good thing. Forcing your kids to eat more than they're supposed to at their age only causes them to be unable to tell when they've had enough as an adult and they get fat later in life. If your parents just fed you proper portions correct for your age then they wouldn't need to force it down your throat to get you to finish it...
